RSSA recent trip to The Bistro at Red Bank (Red Bank, NJ) left TRB salivating for more of the Blueberry Crumb Cobbler, which was simply amazing. Since it has been consuming her every waking thought now for more than a week, TRB decided to try to re-create this delicious dessert at home – the (somewhat) *healthy* way.
Here is TRB’s version – and, she dares to say, it was pretty close to The Bistro’s! Enjoy!
Blueberry Crumb Cobbler
For the Filling
2 pints organic blueberries (washed and de-stemmed)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 whole grain pastry flour
2 tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Juice of one lemon
For the Crumb Cobbler Topping
1 stick of butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 cup whole grain pastry flour
1/4 cup old fashioned oats
Honey for drizzling
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, flour and cinnamon in a large bowl. (Take care not to “mash” the berries by gently incorporating the ingredients).
3. Put the berry mixture into a greased casserole / glass baking dish. Set aside.
4. Soften a stick of butter in the microwave for approximately 45 seconds. Combine with the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and old fashioned oats.
5. Spread the crumb mixture over the top of the berry mixture in the glass baking dish, making sure to completely cover all of the berries. Drizzle approximately a tablespoon of honey over the top.
6. Bake for 45 minutes or until berries are juicy and bubbly, and the crumb topping is brown.
7. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (if desired).
